THREE PHASE PERMANENT MAGNET SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR DRIVE
SIMULATION USING MATLAB

1.1 AIM:
To Construct Three phase permanent magnet synchronous motor drive simulation using
MATLAB.

1.2 APPARATUS:

S. No SOFTWARE USED DESKTOP QUANTITY

1 MATLAB 36

1.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 1.1 Three Phase Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Drive Simulation Using
MATLAB

1.4 DISCRIPTION:
This circuit uses a modified version of the AC6 block of the Sim Power Systems™ electric drives
library. It models a flux weakening vector control for a 100 kW, 12500 rpm, salient pole PMSM
powered by a 288 Vdc source. The mechanical system is represented externally. That's why the
input of the motor is the speed and the output is the electromagnetic torque.
The PM synchronous motor drive is composed of four main parts: The electrical motor, the Three-
phase Inverter, the VECT controller and the Speed Controller.
 The electrical motor is a 288 Vdc, 100 kW PMSM. This motor has 8 pole and the magnets are
buried (salient rotor's type).
 The Three-phase Inverter is a voltage source inverter, controlled by PWM. This block is built
using the universal bridge Block.
 The VECT controller block computes the three reference motor line currents corresponding to
the flux and torque references and then generates a corresponding PWM using a three-
phase current regulator. When the nominal flux is required, an optimal control is used in order

6|P age
 to minimise the line current amplitude for the required torque. When a flux weakening is
needed, the amplitude and the phase of the current are changed to extend the torque-speed
operating range.
 The Speed Controller is used in torque regulation mode. The normalized flux value is computed
with the speed of the machine in order to perform a flux weakening control.

The Torque limitation block is used to prevent the limitation due to the torque-speed
characteristic of this motor for a 288 Vdc source. When the internal machine's voltage reaches
the inverter voltage (because the desired torque is too high for the motor's speed), the inverter
becomes in saturation mode (the desired current cannot flow anymore into motor). After this
point, there will be a loss of current tracking which will decrease the motor current. This block
is used to reduce the reference torque as a function of the motor's speed and the torque-speed
characteristic in order to never operate in inverter saturation mode.
Motor torque, speed, power, currents and voltages signals are available at the output of the
block.

1.5 SIMULATION:
Start the simulation. You can observe the motor torque (electromagnetic and reference), the rotor
speed, the mechanical power (electromagnetic and reference), the stator currents (magnitude, Iq and
Id), and the stator voltages (magnitude, Vq and Vd)
 At t = 0 s, the torque set point is set to 256 Nm (the nominal torque of the motor). The
electromagnetic torque reaches rapidly the reference.
 At t = 0.104 s, the rotor speed exceeds the nominal speed of 3000 rpm. Hence, a flux weakening
is performed in order to limit the back electromotive force (BEMF) of the motor; therefore the
Id current component is increased (negatively). Also the reference torque is limited (due to the
torque-speed characteristic of the motor) to prevent inverter saturation, causing a decrease in the
Iq current component. Note that the magnitude of the current is constant; only the angle
changes.
Now change the Reference Torque to 100 Nm and observe the results:
 At t = 0 s, the torque set point is set to 100 Nm. The current amplitude is optimal for this torque.

 At t = 0.28 s, the rotor speed exceeds the nominal speed of 3000 rpm. Hence, a flux weakening
is performed in order to limit the back electromotive force (BEMF) of the motor; therefore the
Id current component is increased (negatively).
 At t = 1.06 s, the reference torque is limited (due to the torque-speed characteristic of the motor)
to prevent inverter saturation, causing a decrease in the Iq current component. The magnitude of
the current is maintained at a constant value, but the phase of current changes.
Note that the electromagnetic torque follows precisely the reference torque even in the flux
weakening region.

2.5 DESCRIPTION:

Model 1 is a detailed model using 6 IGBTs and 6 anti-parallel diodes.

Model 2 is a Switching-Function type equivalent model where switches are replaced by two sources
of voltage on AC side and a current source on DC side. As for detailed model 1, this model uses the
6 IGBT pulses as control input (g). This model correctly represents harmonics generated by the
VSC.
Model 3 is an average-model type. Unlike model 2 which uses pulses, this model uses the three
reference signals (uref) representing the three average voltages generated at ABC terminals. The
model does not represent harmonics. It can be used with larger sample times (typically 10 times
larger than required by detailed model) while preserving the average voltage dynamics.
In both model 2 and model 3, the VSC is assumed to be ideal (AC instantaneous power= DC
instantaneous power).

3.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 3.1 Three Phase Voltage Source Converter with Space Vector PWM Simulation using

3.4 DESCRIPTION:

A 3-phase squirrel-cage motor rated 3 HP, 220 V, 60 Hz, 1725 rpm is fed by a 3-phase MOSFET
inverter connected to a DC voltage source of 325 V. The inverter is modeled using the "Universal

11 | P a g e
 Bridge" block and the motor by the "Asynchronous Machine" block. Its stator leakage inductance
Lls is set to twice its actual value to simulate the effect of a smoothing reactor placed between the
inverter and the machine. The load torque applied to the machine's shaft is constant and set to its
nominal value of 11.9 N.m.
The firing pulses to the inverter are generated by the "Space-Vector PWM modulator" block of the
SPS library. The chopping frequency is set to 1980 Hz and the input reference vector to “agnitude-
Angle”.
Speed control of the motor is performed by the “Constant V/Hz” block. The magnitude and
frequency of the stator voltages are set based on the speed set point. By varying the stator voltages
magnitude in proportion with frequency, the stator flux is kept constant.

3.5 SIMULATION:
Start the simulation. Since the initial states have been automatically loaded, the simulation should
start in steady-state. The initial motor speed should be 1720 RPM and the rms value of the stator
voltages should be 220V@60Hz.

At 0.1s, the speed ue is down to 165.8V and the frequency to 45.2 Hz.
Stator voltage (phase AB) and phase A current waveforms can be observed in the "V-I Stator"
Scope. You can do a FFT of theses two quantities using the powergui FFT Analysis.
Regenerate Initial Conditions:
The initial states required to start this model in steady state with a 1725 rpm reference speed and a
11.9 N.m load torque have been saved in the "power_svpwm_init.mat" file. When you open this
model, the InitFcn callback (in the Model Properties/Callbacks) automatically loads into your
workspace the contents of this .mat file ("xInitial" variable).
If you modify this model, or change parameter values of power components, the initial conditions
stored in the "xInitial" variable will no longer be valid and Simulink® will issue an error message.
To regenerate the initial conditions for your modified model, follow the steps listed below:

1. In the Simulation/Configuration Parameters/Data Import/Export Parameters menu, uncheck the

"Initial state" parameter.

2. Double click on the Step block labeled "Speed Setpoint (RPM)" and temporarily disable the
change of reference speed by multiplying the Step time by 100.

3. Change the Simulation Mode from "Normal" to "Accelerator".

4. Start simulation. When simulation is completed, verify that steady state has been reached by
looking at waveforms displayed on the scopes. The final states which have been saved in the
"xFinal" structure with time can be used as initial states for future simulations. Executing the
next two commands copies these final conditions in "xInitial" and saves this variable in a new
file (myModel_init.mat). * >> xInitial=xFinal; * >> save myModel_init xInitial

12 | P a g e
 5. In the File/Model Properties/Callbacks/InitFcn window, change the name of the initialization
file from "power_svpwm_init" to "myModel_init". Next time you open this model, the variable
xInitial saved in the myModel_init.mat file will be loaded in your workspace.

6. In the Simulation/Configuration Parameters menu, check "Initial state".

7. Start simulation and verify that your model starts in steady-state.

8. Double click on the Step block labeled "Speed Setpoint (RPM)" and re-enable the change of
reference speed at t=0.1 s (remove the 100 multiplication factor in the Step time).

9. Change the Simulation Mode back to Normal.

10. Save your Model

BUCK CONVERTER SIMULATION USING MATLAB

4.1 AIM:

To construct buck converter simulation using MATLAB

4.2 APPARATUS:

S. No SOFTWARE USED DESKTOP QUANTITY

1 MATLAB 36

4.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 4.1 Buck Converter Simulation using MATLAB

4.4 DESCRIPTION:
This example shows a DC-DC buck converter feeding an RC load from a 200 V source. The PWM
frequency is set at 5 kHz and duty cycle varies between 0.1 and 0.8. With this 5 kHz PWM
frequency, the sample time needed for a 0.5% resolution on duty cycle using a standard
discretization method (Tustin or Backward Euler) is Ts = 1e-6 sec (1 MHz sampling frequency =
200 x PWM_freq -> resolution = 1/200 = 0.5 %). The example shows that using interpolation
allows you to run the model with a much larger time step (Ts = 20e-6 sec) while preserving model
accuracy.

4.5 SIMULATION:
By default, sample time is initialized to 20e-6 sec (inside the Model Properties / PreloadFcn
Callback). Open the powergui block and make sure that the solver type is Tustin and that
interpolation is enabled. The simulation data inspector is enabled and the Vload signal is logged.
1. Perform a first simulation with interpolation in service.

14 | P a g e
 2. Disable interpolation and specify Ts = 1e-6 in the command window. Perform a
second simulation run.
3. In the powergui Solver tab, set Simulation Type to Continuous and select Use ideal switching
devices. Perform a third simulation run with the continuous model.
4. Using the Data Inspector, compare the three simulation runs. Vload voltage obtained during the
first two runs (interpolation with Ts = 20e-6 sec and no interpolation with Ts = 1e-6 sec) is very
close to the continuous simulation.
5. Notice that the interpolation solver matches the continuous solver and is even more accurate
than the standard discrete solver.
6. Compare simulation speeds of discrete models (interpolation with Ts = 20e-6 sec and no
interpolation with Ts = 1e-6 sec). To achieve significant simulation times, increase simulation
stop time to 0.5 sec. The diagnostic viewer displays the simulation time at the end of
each simulation run. The speed increase obtained with the interpolation method is
approximately 4X.

5.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 5.1 Six pulse cycloconverter simulation using MATLAB

5.4 DESCRIPTION:

The system consists of three-phase to single-phase cycloconverter modules suitably arranged to

implement a three-phase to three-phase architecture. Each module has a positive and negative cycle
thyristor bridge connected in anti-parallel. To avoid circulating currents when one bridge is
conducting, the anti-parallel bridge is blocked. A 5 degree 'dead zone' exists between the positive
and negative cycle commutation. You can modify the dead zone value in File -> Model Properties -
> Callbacks -> Init FCN. The output voltage waveforms are constructed by suitably modifying the
firing angle of the thyristor bridges.

16 | P a g e
5.5 SIMULATION:

Start the simulation. Observe the load voltages from Scope 'Vabc_load' in System Measurements
subsystem, and note that a 10Hz output has been constructed from a 60Hz input. A MATLAB®
script executes on completion of the simulation to more clearly show the construction of phase-A
output voltage from the three-phase input. The user may modify this execution as desired by editing
File -> Model Properties -> Callbacks -> Stop Fcn. The user can adjust the output voltage
magnitude and frequency by modifying 'Output voltage (V peak)' and 'Output frequency (Hz)'
respectively.

SPEED CONTROL DC MOTOR USING BJT-H BRIDGE SIMULATION USING MATLAB

6.2 APPARATUS:

S. No SOFTWARE USED DESKTOP QUANTITY

1 MATLAB 36

6.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 6.1 Speed control DC motor using BJT-H bridge simulation using MATLAB

6.4 DESCRIPTION:

The bipolar junction transistor (BJT) when used for power switching applications operates as an
IGBT. When it is conducting (BJT operating in the saturated region) a forward voltage Vf is
developed between collector and emitter (in the range of 1 V). Therefore the IGBT block can be
used to model the BJT device.

18 | P a g e
 The IGBT block does not simulate the gate current controlling the BJT or IGBT. The switch is
controlled by a simulink signal (1/0). The DC motor uses the preset model (5 HP 24V 1750 rpm). It
simulates a fan type load (where Load torque is proportional to square of speed). The armature
mean voltage can be varied from 0 to 240 V when the duty cycle (specified in the Pulse Generator
block) is varied from 0 to 100%.

The H bridge consists of four BJT/Diode pairs (BJT simulated by IGBT models). Two transistors
are switched simultaneously: Q1 and Q4 or Q2 and Q3. When Q1 and Q4 are fired, a positive
voltage is applied to the motor and diodes D2-D3 operate as free-wheeling diodes when Q1 and Q3
are switched off. When Q2 and Q3 are fired, a negative voltage is applied to the motor and diodes
D1-D4 operate as free-wheeling diodes when Q2 and Q3 are switched off.

6.5 SIMULATION:
The motor starts in the positive direction with a duty cycle of 75% (mean DC voltage of 180V). At
t= 0.5 sec. the armature voltage is suddenly reversed and the motor runs in the negative direction.
Scope1 shows motor speed, armature current and load torque and Scope2 shows currents flowing in
BJT Q3 and diode D3.

7.2 APPARATUS:

S. No SOFTWARE USED DESKTOP QUANTITY

7.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 7.1 Three phase thyristor converter simulation using MATLAB

7.4 DESCRIPTION:

A DC motor represented by a simplified RL-E model is fed from an inductive three-phase source
through a six-pulse thyristor bridge. A pulse generator synchronized on the source voltages provides
the trigger pulses for the six thyristors.
The converter output current is controlled by a PI current regulator built with Simulink® blocks. A
step signal is applied to the reference input to test the dynamic response of the current regulator.
In order to allow further signal processing, signals displayed on the Scope block are sampled at
1/60/512 s (512 samples/ cycle) and stored in a variable named 'psbconveter_str' ('structure with
time' format).

20 | P a g e
7.4 SIMULATION:
Start simulation and observe current and voltage waveforms on the Scope block.
When simulation is completed, open the Powergui and select FFT Analysis to display the 0 - 2000
Hz frequency spectrum of signals saved in the 'psbconverter_str' structure. The FFT will be
performed on a 2-cycle window starting at t = 0.1 - 2/60 (last 2 cycles of recording). Input labeled
'Ia & Ib' and signal number 1 (Ia) should be already selected. Click on Display and observe the
frequency spectrum of last two cycles of Ia. Harmonic currents (6n+/-1) are displayed in % of the
fundamental component.
The value of the fundamental current (magnitude = 27.48 A peak) and the Total Harmonic
Distortion (THD) are also displayed. Harmonics in the 0 - 2000 Hz range contribute to 29% in
THD. If you specify a 0-4000 Hz frequency range, notice that contributions of harmonics above
2000 Hz are negligible in the current THD.

Now select the input labeled Vd and display its spectrum. The DC voltage contains harmonics (6n)
and its DC component is 145.4 V.

four 3-phase inverters.The four voltages generated by the inverters are applied to secondary
windings of four zig-zag phase-shifting transformers connected in Wye (Y) or Delta (D). The four
transformer primary windings are connected in series and theconverter pulse patterns
are phase shifted so that the four voltage fundamental components sum in phase on the primary
side.
Each 3-level inverter generates three square-wave voltages which can be +Vdc, 0, -Vdc. The
duration of the +Vdc or -Vdc level (Sigma) can be adjusted between 0 and 180 degrees from the
Sigma input of the Firing Pulse Generator block. Each inverter uses a Three-Level Bridge block
where specified power electronic devices are Ideal Switches. In this model each leg of the inverter
uses 3 ideal switches to obtain the 3 voltage levels (+Vdc, 0, - Vdc). This simple model simulates
the behavior of a physical inverter where each leg consists of 4 GTOs, 4 antiparallel diodes and 2
neutral clamping diodes. Despite this simplified switch arrangement, the model still requires 4
pulses per arm as in the physical model. The pulse pattern sent to each leg of a 3-phase inverter is
described inside the Firing Pulse Generator.
You can also select GTO/Diodes pairs instead of Ideal Switches as power electronic devices. It
would allow you to specify forward voltage drops for GTOs and diodes and to observe currents
flowing in GTOs and diodes by means of the Multimeter block.
The phase shifts produced by the secondary delta connections (-30 degrees) and by the primary zig-
zag connections (+7.5 degrees for transformers 1Y and 1D, and -7.5 degrees for transformers 2Y
and 2D) allows to neutralize harmonics up to 45th harmonic, as explained below:
The 30-degree phase-shift between the Y and D secondaries cancels harmonics 5+12n (5, 17, 29,
41, ...) and 7+12n (7, 19, 31, 43, ...). In addition, the 15-degree phase shift between the two groups
of transformers (1Y and 1D leading by 7.5 degrees, 2Y and 2D lagging by +7.5 degrees) allows
cancellation of harmonics 11+24n (11, 35, ...) and 13+24n (13, 37, ...). Considering that all 3n the
harmonics are not transmitted by the Y and D secondaries, the first harmonic which are not
cancelled by the transformers are 23rd, 25th, 47th and 49th. By choosing an appropriate conduction
angle for the 3-level inverters (sigma = 180 - 7.5 = 172.5 degrees), the 23rd and 25th can be
minimized. The first significant harmonics are therefore the 47th and 49th. This type of inverter
generates an almost sinusoidal waveform consisting of 48-steps.
The inverter is operated in open loop at constant DC voltage. During the first three cycles the
inverter operates at no load. Then, at t = 0.05 s, a 100 MVA resistive load is connected at the 138-
kV terminals.

8.5 SIMULATION:
Run the simulation and observe the following waveforms on the Scope block:
Voltages generated by the inverter (trace 1), load currents (trace 2), phase-neutral voltage
and phase-phase voltage of one of the four inverters (1Y) superimposed on trace 3. When the
inverter is operating at no load, you can observe the three 48-step voltage waveform. When the load

23 | P a g e
 is switched on the voltage becomes smoother because harmonics are filtered by the transformer
leakage reactances.
Once the simulation is completed, open the Powergui and select "FFT Analysis" to display the 0-
4000 Hz frequency spectrum of signals saved in the two "psb48pulse_str" structure. Select signal
labeled 'Vabc (pu)'. The FFT will be performed on a 1-cycle window of phase A voltage starting at t
= 0.025-1/60 s (inverter operating at no load). Click on Display and observe the frequency
spectrum.
The fundamental component of Voltage (in pu) as well as THD are displayed above the spectrum
window. Notice that the first significant harmonics are 47th and 49th (approx. 2%). Notice also that
23rd and 25th are reduced below 0.3%. In order to appreciate the efficiency of harmonic
neutralization, you can also observe the frequency spectrum of phase-phase voltage generated by
each individual inverter. Select input labeled "Van Vab Converter 1Y" and signal number 2 and
click on Display. Observe that THD in the 0 - 4000 Hz frequency range is 25%.
You can also run another simulation by specifying different values of sigma at the input of
the pulse generator. You can verify that, in order to cancel a particular harmonic n in the phase-
phase voltage of each individual converter, the Sigma value (in degrees) is given by:
Sigma=180*(1 - 1/n)

Verify also that choosing Sigma = 180 degrees is equivalent to using 2-level converters and that
voltage waveform is degraded to 24 pulses

THREE PHASE THREE LEVEL PWM CONVERTER SIMULATION USING MATLAB

9.1 AIM:
To Construct three phase three level PWM converter simulation using MATLAB

9.2 APPARATUS:

S. No SOFTWARE USED DESKTOP QUANTITY

1 MATLAB 36

9.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 9.1 Three phase three level PWM converter simulation using MATLAB

9.4 DESCRIPTION:
The system consists of two three-phase three-level PWM voltage source converters connected in
twin configuration The inverter feeds an AC load (1kW, 500 var 60Hz @ 208 Vrms) through
a three-phase transformer. Harmonic filtering is performed by the transformer leakage inductance
(8%) and load capacitance (500 var).
Each of the two inverters uses the Three-Level Bridge block where the specified power electronic
devices are IGBT/Diode pairs. Each arm consists of 4 IGBTs, 4 antiparallel diodes, and 2 neutral
clamping diodes.
The inverter is controlled in open loop. PWM Generator blocks generates sets of 12 pulses. They
can operate either in synchronized or un-synchronized mode. When operating in synchronized
mode, the carrier triangular signal is synchronized on a PLL reference angle connected to input 'wt'.

26 | P a g e
 In synchronized mode, the carrier chopping frequency is specified by the switching ratio as a
multiple of the output frequency.
Three sinusoidal 0.85 pu modulating signals are used to obtain a modulation index of 0.85. The
carrier signals are synchronized on the modulating signals. in the PWM Generator block, you can
instead select 'Unsynchronized' and 'Internal generation of modulating signals'. In such a case the
magnitude (modulation index), frequency and phase angle of the output signals are specified
directly inside the PWM Generator block menu.
For this example the DC bus voltage is 400V (+/- 200 V), chopping frequency is 1080 Hz (18*60
Hz), magnitude of the three modulating signals is 0.85 (corresponding to a modulation index m =
0.85) and the frequency of the three generated signals is 60 Hz.
In order to allow further signal processing, signals displayed on the Scope block (sampled
at simulation sampling rate of 3240 samples/ cycle) are stored in a variable named
'psb3phPWM3level_str' (structures with time).

9.5 SIMULATION:

Run the simulation and observe the following three waveforms on the Scope block: Phase-neutral
voltage Van_inv1 generated by inverter 1 (trace 1), phase A voltage Vaa_inverter generated by the
twin inverter (trace 2) and phase-phase load voltage Vab_load (trace 3). The Van_inv1 waveform
cleary shows the three levels: +200 V, 0 V, and -200 V.
Once the simulation is completed, open the Powergui and select 'FFT Analysis' to display the 0 -
5000 Hz frequency spectrum of signals saved in the 'psb3phPWM3level_str' structure. The FFT will
be performed on a 2-cycle window starting at t = 0.1 - 2/60 (last 2 cycles of recording). Select the
input labeled 'Vaa _inverter'. Click on Display and observe the frequency spectrum of last 2 cycles.
The fundamental component of Vaa_inverter and THD for the 0 - 5000 Hz frequency range are
displayed above the spectrum window. Because of the forward voltage drops in the IGBTs (Vf=1
V) and diodes (Vfd=1V), the magnitude of the fundamental voltage of the inverter (335 V) is
slightly lower than the theoretical value (340 V for m=0.85). As expected for a twin inverter, first
harmonics occur around multiples of double of carrier frequency (n*2*1080 Hz +- k*60Hz).

The same circuit using two-level inverters in twin configuration is available in the psb3phPWM
model. Run this model and compare the harmonic contents in the 2-level and 3-level inverter
voltage for the same modulation index (m = 0.85). Harmonics occur at the same frequencies but
their magnitude is approximately two times lower for a 3-level inverter

THREE PHASE SPACE – VECTOR PWM CONVERTER SIMULATION USING MATLAB

10.3 BLOCK DIAGRAM:

Fig – 10.1 Three phase space – vector PWM converter simulation using MATLAB

10.4 DESCRIPTION:
A 3-phase squirrel-cage motor rated 3 HP, 220 V, 60 Hz, 1725 rpm is fed by a 3-phase MOSFET
inverter connected to a DC voltage source of 325 V. The inverter is modeled using the "Universal
Bridge" block and the motor by the "Asynchronous Machine" block. Its stator leakage inductance
Lls is set to twice its actual value to simulate the effect of a smoothing reactor placed between the
inverter and the machine. The load torque applied to the machine's shaft is constant and set to its
nominal value of 11.9 N.m.

29 | P a g e
 The firing pulses to the inverter are generated by the "Space-Vector PWM modulator" block of the
SPS library. The chopping frequency is set to 1980 Hz and the input reference vector to
"Magnitude-Angle".
Speed control of the motor is performed by the "Constant V/Hz" block. The magnitude and
frequency of the stator voltages are set based on the speed set point. By varying the stator voltages
magnitude in proportion with frequency, the stator flux is kept constant.

10.5 SIMULATION:

Start the simulation. Since the initial states have been automatically loaded, the simulation should
start in steady-state. The initial motor speed should be 1720 RPM and the rms value of the stator
voltages should be 220V@60Hz.
At 0.1s, the speed setpoint is changed from 1725 to 1300 RPM. You can observe the system
dynamic looking inside Scope 1. When the motor reaches a constant speed of 1275 RPM, the stator
voltage rms value is down to 165.8V and the frequency to 45.2 Hz.

Stator voltage (phase AB) and phase A current waveforms can be observed in the "V-I Stator"
Scope. You can do a FFT of theses two quantities using the powergui FFT Analysis.
Regenerate Initial Conditions:
The initial states required to start this model in steady state with a 1725 rpm reference speed and a
11.9 N.m load torque have been saved in the "power_svpwm_init.mat" file. When you open this
model, the InitFcn callback (in the Model Properties/Callbacks) automatically loads into your
workspace the contents of this .mat file ("xInitial" variable).

If you modify this model, or change parameter values of power components, the initial conditions
stored in the "xInitial" variable will no longer be valid and Simulink® will issue an error message.
To regenerate the initial conditions for your modified model, follow the steps listed below:

1. In the Simulation/Configuration Parameters/Data Import/Export Parameters menu, uncheck the

"Initial state" parameter.
2. Double click on the Step block labeled "Speed Setpoint (RPM)" and temporarily disable the
change of reference speed by multiplying the Step time by 100.

3. Change the Simulation Mode from "Normal" to "Accelerator".

4. Start simulation. When simulation is completed, verify that steady state has been reached by
looking at waveforms displayed on the scopes. The final states which have been saved in the
"xFinal" structure with time can be used as initial states for future simulations. Executing the
next two commands copies these final conditions in "xInitial" and saves this variable in a new
file (myModel_init.mat). * >> xInitial=xFinal; * >> save myModel_init xInitial
5. In the File/Model Properties/Callbacks/InitFcn window, change the name of the initialization
file from "power_svpwm_init" to "myModel_init". Next time you open this model, the variable
xInitial saved in the myModel_init.mat file will be loaded in your workspace.

30 | P a g e
 6. In the Simulation/Configuration Parameters menu, check "Initial state".
7. Start simulation and verify that your model starts in steady-state.
8. Double click on the Step block labeled "Speed Setpoint (RPM)" and re-enable the change of
reference speed at t=0.1 s (remove the 100 multiplication factor in the Step time).

9. Change the Simulation Mode back to Normal.
